What an accredited installer means in practice
Accreditation means the engineers fitting your stairlift are trained and approved to install and service that equipment properly. For you, that shows up in the parts of the job people don't think about at purchase: correct fitting, safety testing, warranty cover, and servicing afterwards.
How to compare quotes fairly
- Fitted or not: check whether the figure includes installation, as ours do.
- VAT: a quote at 20% and a quote at 0% look very different for the same lift — most buyers qualify for relief.
- Straight or curved: a curved rail is made to measure, so comparing it to a straight price tells you nothing useful.
- Warranty and servicing: our reconditioned units carry the same warranty as new.
